Reading large values as streams?
I'm using BerkeleyDB for storage of individual values that potentially can become very big (>1GB).
Therefore and because my applications must treat the values as streams anyway, it would be desireable to have these values not returned in toto but as stream objects.
This would in effect remove a barrier by stopping the waste of memory in my app.

Does anybody know if this is possible?

Thank you,
Steffen
